greenpaw Posted May 27, 2011 Ahh yes that explains it. Apologies to KV, I screwed that one up good and proper. $211.94 US with International Priority Email is very tempting Yep that happened for me too. It was 10% off already so it was 30% off the full retail rather than the discounted price. I almost went ahead with it and might even still do it. It is a very good deal compared to what we would pay over here. Might purchase one and keep it away for Christmas, my son isn't that interested at the moment but I think it is only a matter of time. Wish they had more of the higher priced sets as well. Cheers Inger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrettBrick Posted May 27, 2011 Mine got shipped today. The 30% off is off the full price as mentioned not of the already discounted price. You can use the offer only once per email address, so You can get a couple of things 30% off. I couldn't spot anything else to grab though, any ideas anyone?

KartoffelViking Posted May 28, 2011 World Racers Gator Swamp scanned at $20 at Target Newton (Adelaide) this morning! I also heard the Creator Off-Road Power is $50 now at Target, but I haven't seen any around in a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamonlego Posted May 28, 2011 and the new star wars ewoks set is also at K-Mart (Brisbane - Garden City) P.s. B&N seem to have a lot of new sets listed - all for pre-order, which doesn't seem to work very well - but its at least a good guide to US pricing - millenium falcon for US$126 - thats got to come from overseas, if the price is double here is AU - hopefully they get some in stock Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does it give a timeframe when it will be released? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamonlego Posted May 28, 2011 (edited) Where on the site do you find the preorders? Does it give a timeframe when it will be released? Go to the home page bn.com, and do a search for lego - then at the top of the page is a <sort by> selection - select "newest to oldest" (default is "top matches") and then scroll down the list - the pre-orders appear at the top of the list - at the moment about 2 -3 pages worth looks like B&N have just changed their site as well- looks a little different no details about dates though :-( somehow I wonder if this is a mistake - as you can't click through to the product - just says not found Edited May 28, 2011 by jamonlego Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonwil Posted May 28, 2011 Has anyone seen the cars set with the black and white jet airplane in it anywhere yet or know who will get it, when it will appear and what it will cost? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Draks Posted May 28, 2011 I put a order through B&N got 30% off the most expensive set and put another 2 smaller sets in the order. Got a email saying the 2 smaller sets have shipped but the larger one has been delayed and if I wish to cancel. Not too pleased with B&N as this will be the 2nd time they've taken my money and then sent a email to cancel my order. If theres no stock take the product off the web site, not hard!

Darth Draks Posted May 28, 2011 Was that the Mindstorms set? Will be interesting to see if mine will be delayed It was the Persia Battle of Alamut 7573, we'll see what happens but not holding my breath, plus I will need to send a email back to get the 30% on one of the sets that shipped. Good luck with the mindstorms set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nzkiwiman Posted May 28, 2011 Has anyone seen the cars set with the black and white jet airplane in it anywhere yet or know who will get it, when it will appear and what it will cost? Not helpfull reply really, but I saw it today in my local Warehouse (I live in Dunedin, South Island, New Zealand) for $120NZ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonwil Posted May 28, 2011 At that price (and given what it will likely cost here) I dont think I can justify it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Notorious Guf Posted May 29, 2011 Hey, has anyone used BN's express shipping? they state delivery in 1 - 4 days, is this accurate? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dotmike Posted May 29, 2011 Has anyone seen any HP sets yet? Probably closer to the movie (Thursday, 14 July 2011). I wonder if they'll bring back the previous HP sets that were cleared so drastically at the end of their Australian run in January? The Burrow and Dobby's Release were slashed pretty dramatically to get them off the shelves. I assume so, as between The Knight Bus, The Forbidden Forest, and the exploding bridge Hogwarts add-on, they aren't really enough to justify the theme's reappearance by themselves. Still hanging out for a TRU 20% coupon... (I want the lighthouse, and it's not viable to import (freight would be ~50% of the value). I hate exclusives / restricted early availability where a store just around the corner has them! Too tempting to say, "hang it, I'll just pay RRP." Which is equivalent to saying, "please give me a lobotomy.") Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greenpaw Posted May 29, 2011 I've recently moved to Brisbane and was wondering if there are any stores that generally get Lego sets earlier than other shops. Are the central city stores better or the suburban stores? Cheers Inger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shnake Posted May 30, 2011 World Racers Gator Swamp scanned at $20 at Target Newton (Adelaide) this morning! I also heard the Creator Off-Road Power is $50 now at Target, but I haven't seen any around in a while. Target at Hornsby had about 10 Creator Off-Road Power last weekend, and as of yesterday they had none, so somebody must have cleaned them out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
